In case you are having the same problem, the recompiled package is available from my Debian packages page.http://cmeerw.org/blog/558.html How 1and1 broke my e-mail- April 17, 2008 Just noticed (by a lack of spam) that my e-mail setup was broken for about a day after I added an IPv6-only MX to cmeerw.org yesterday. So how can adding an MX record break your e-mail Well, I am currently using 1and1 to forward e-mail addressed to cmeerw.org to two separate mail boxes. But after adding the IPv6-only MX, 1and1 mail servers decided to bounce e-mails instead of forwarding them, simply because they got confused by the IPv6 MX (or rather the lack of an IPv4 address for that MX)...http://cmeerw.org/blog/557.html Lydiard Park, Canon PowerShot SX100 IS- April 13, 2008 I have added a few pictures to my photo album I took yesterday evening at Lydiard Park. Nothing exciting really, just needed to try my new PowerShot SX100 camera as I decided to retire my almost 8 year old PowerShot S20 this year.http://cmeerw.org/blog/556.html IPv6 Support for NewsCache- April 12, 2008 I am currently implementing full IPv6 support for NewsCache. Source code isn't available yet, but a development version is already running quite nicely on my system. One thing I also noticed is that setting the TCP_NODELAY option (which NewsCache didn't use until now) makes the server much more responsive.http://cmeerw.org/blog/555.html IPv6 Glue Record for edge.cmeerw.net- April 3, 2008 As domaindiscount24 now allows to add IPv6 glue records to nameservers, I have taken the opportunity to add an IPv6 glue record for edge.cmeerw.net. This is just another step in my ongoing struggle to get fully IPv6 ready.http://cmeerw.org/blog/554.html |
